Dimensions and Correlates of Religious Ideologies
Abstract
Four potentially independent dimensions of religious ideology are investigated: the orthodoxy of the belief, the fanaticism which it inspires, its importance to the self-conception, and the consciousness of ambivalence concerning the belief. Measured independently of each other, the first three are found to be directly related to each other, and the fourth inversely related to the other three. These dimensions are found to be related—but in different degree—to personality characteristics such as authoritarianism, status concern, and conservatism, and social characteristics such as region of residence, size of community, and sex.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
